S12E8 - Hope Goes Nope

Send us Fan MailThink of a time of suffering in your own life — losing a loved one, facing the disappointment of canceled plans, experiencing betrayal, debilitating sickness or constant pain, or maybe just enduring the excruciating heat of the tropical climate you live in. Recall the point at which you felt most helpless. That feeling of helplessness was a reckoning with your weakness and your basic inability to control your circumstances, because if you could, you certainly would escape them. (Many of us continue trying our hand at escapism every day.) Then, in the midst of this reckoning with your helplessness, you were gifted peace. Realizing your inability to change your present circumstances of suffering, you let go of striving to do so. And when you did, you breathed a sigh of relief at the peace that washed over you.Hope is not wishful thinking. Hope says, “You promised, now fulfill your promise!” Hope is both the evidence that we have seen the goodness and the confidence that we will see it in its fullness.This week we would like to highlight  Legacy of Hope would like to learn more or donate click the link below https://legacyofhope.org/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=gbp-listingPlease leave a comment and review our episode and give some feedback on what we can improve on!Thank You All For Listening and DownloadingWe drop an episode every ThursdayFollow us on all of our socialsSupport the showThe 988 Lifeline988 is now active across the United States.
